Akashi Kaikyo Bridge
On clear days, see the world's longest suspension bridge connecting Honshu to Awaji Island.
Shikoku Coastline
Excellent views of the Tokushima and Kochi coasts as the plane tracks south away from Japan.
Cape Shionomisaki
The southernmost point of Honshu island, marked by dramatic cliffs and a historic lighthouse.
Tumon Bay
Guam's primary tourist district with its vibrant coral reefs and turquoise waters visible during landing.
Hagåtña Capital
A clear view of the capital city and the boat basins just before touchdown at GUM.
The right side is ideal for capturing the quintessential 'tropical island' photo of Guam's western coast. During the approach, the plane often banks left, giving passengers on the right a panoramic view of the reef-protected lagoons. Be aware that during mid-day flights, the sun will be on this side, so window shades may need to be lowered periodically.

KIX Departure
View of the impressive man-made island architecture of Kansai Airport surrounded by Osaka Bay.
Kii Peninsula
Aerial perspective of the sacred Kumano mountains and the dense forests of Wakayama Prefecture.
Philippine Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue ocean transitions as the plane moves into tropical latitudes.
Andersen AFB
The massive runways and infrastructure of the northernmost military base on Guam during the final descent.
Choose this side for early morning departures to experience a spectacular Pacific sunrise over the horizon. It is generally the 'shadier' side for most of the southbound journey, which helps reduce glare for photography. Keep an eye out for the rugged eastern cliffs of Guam's northern plateau as you begin your final approach.
